John Wannamaker, the great Philadelphia merchant, knows more about advertising than most men. "I never in my life," he said the other day, 'tusod such thing as a poster, or dodger, or hand bill. My plan for fifteen years has been to buy so much space in Q newspaper and fill it up with what I wanted. would not give an advertise ment in newspaper of four hundred circu- lation for five thousand dodgers or posters If I wanted to sell cheap jewelry or run lottery scheme might use posters, but I would not insult decent reading public with hand bills"

General Black, commissioner of pensions, has lately dismissed clerk in his office who had been g soldier, was competent and faith full as 8 clerk, and against whom no charges of any kind had been made. The reasons for removal were simply partisan. The vet eran soldier is a Republican, and his place was wanted for Democrat. The Veterans Rights association of Washington has come to the conclusion that wrongs of this kind have been repeated too often, and has, there fore, with the approval, it is said, of the civil service commission, decided to bring a suit to test the commissioners right to remove this man.

I am unable to see that he adds material
strength to the cause 4 Mr.. King
thinks that his bill 4 \ is the best ever
conceived by man. = 4 Here is sam
pie of brilliant work done for the open
ing of the reservation. John FL. King,
on Thursday last, took typewriter
copy of the bill which Senator Jones had
introduced. and gave it exclusively to
the Washington correspondent of the
Pioneer Press for publication. On that
day bad piece of work was done for the
bill. Clifford knows and King ought to
have known, that the correspondent of
the st. Paul Globe has been for the past
five years one of the best friends Dakota
has had in the entire country. He has
worked in disinterested manner for
everything which has come up for the
benefit of Dakota. am sure that he is
not well pleased with the treatment he
has received in the matter. Certainly
one thing is observable, while he does
nothing against the bill, he has bottled
UP his enthusiasm and will take no part
in the work. Further, when John
King saw his mistake and commenced to
apologize for his action, he tried to play
the baby act. That is, he tried TO inn
press the correspondent of the Globe that
if the democrats will only open the res
ervation, it will make all of the Hills
country democratic. The idea of John
King playing democratic to an old hand
like the correspondent referred to. lie
was rather surprised to find that he had
been wasting his mendacity upon hide
bound republican. The Globe man is
one of the old time republicans Of the
west, and he was simply Disguised with
Kings efforts to pose as a democrat,
under the mistaken notion that the cor
respondent was democrat. These are
plain facts which are presented to you
this week, although they are not especi-
ally palatable to people who are hop
ing against hope for the success Of their
most vital measure. Call off King.

A Remonstrance.

The remarks made by the ADVERTISER
last week concerning the insurance of
Messrs. Zipp and Hamilton do not seem
to please the agents Of the several com
panjes in Deadwood. The following COM
munication was received from Mr.. Sam
uel Cushman, one of the local agents,
and will explain itself:
DElNDwooD, Dec, %, 1887.
Mr.. /. r. Crow.
DEAR SIR: notice in your supple
ment this item: 4 X y THE insurance
companies claim the larger portion of the
damages were caused by water and not
by fire. and on this technicality expect
to get rid of paying their honest obliga-
TONS The misrepresentation of our
Deadwood papers have been bad enough
but this caps the climax The facts in
brief are these: Mr.. Zipp claims dam
age by water of $4,000, on $4,000
stock. The adjusters offered $500 to
settle and this was 1000 more than the
detailed estimate showed Mr. Hamilton
claims damage from same cause of over
$1,000. The adjusters figured it 81 200.
In both cases appraisers will be necessary
to settle the amount. Every company
in both losses is as solid as Vanderbilt
and are willing to pay all they lose but
not from soto 100 per cent more.
Yours, SAMUEL CusHMAN.

Sigourney Butler, second comptroller
of the currency, to-day notified the sec
rotary of the interior that the accounts
of v. T. M'Gillycuddy, late agent at Pine
Ridge, Dakota, had been thoroughly ex-
amined and found correct, and that Dr.
M Gillycuddy was indebted to the United
States in the sum Of $129.57 disallowed
items. For several years a merciless
warfare against DIR. MGillycuddy has
been carried on by various cranks and
interested persons here in Washington.
and less than year ago the acting COM
missioner of Indian affairs, Upshaw, took
occasion to reflect upon MGillycuddy's
honesty and integrity, referring to GER
tain charges made by an ex-oficial
against the ex- Indian agent This report
by the comptroller is considered a COM
plete vindication of the doctor, and even
the interior department officials speak
with the highest satisfaction of this out

best Indian agent ever in the service. and
his removal, while it pleased the Indian
and his Indian defense association, was
severely condemned Pioneer Press.
This is nothing surprising to the peo-
pie of this section of the country who are
personally acquainted with the doctor.
If the doctor had allowed himself and
wife, together with the balance of the
whites at the agency, to be massacred
and scalped by his bitter enemy, Red
Cloud and his gang of braves, he would
have been extolled as martyr and been
considered dead hero, but because he
preferred to retain his hirsute adornment

Since his removal the officials at Wash

their management than the whole Inter

The following interesting statistics are
taken from the report of the U. 8. geo.
logical survey, just made. The total
value of mineral products in 1885 in this
country was more than 1856, 000, 0g0.
the largest mineral production yet rec
orded in any country. In 1885 the val
ne was $429, 100000. Many substances
shared in this increase, but particularly
iron and steel, which alone showed an in
crease of $30,000,000. In 1885 bitumi-
nous coal was the most valuable mineral
product, but in 1886 it was passed by
pig iron, which had a higher total value
than silver and gold combined. The
consumption Of natural gas was more
than double that of 1885, and twenty
times greater than in 1883. 1t is esti-
mated that the value of coal displaced by
natural gas in 1886 was more than So

the value of petroleum
